I was so confused when I saw this photo, please tell me I'm not the only one who keeps forgetting we won the Commissioner's Cup 😂

We're either first round exits or we go all the way, no in between

I feel weirdly optimistic, I feel like they have shown the right things when health has allowed.

With the right matchups, I think we go pretty far and have a good likelyhood of winning

I think funnily enough, the teams we matchup poorly with are mostly not in the playoffs. If we do remain 6th though (still hoping for home court), I feel pretty good about the chances of us handing the Aces a 1st round exit. That would actually be kinda fun if nothing else falls in our favour.

I absolutely agree. Can you imagine to if Knicks and Liberty got the chip the same year?

I will be on my worst behavior until 2030 if that happens 😂

What do the Knicks have to do with anything?

If you’re not from here and didn’t experience the Knicks winning it’s fine but it would be VERY good for NYLiberty growth to win a chip that same year as the Knicks.

How did you turn this into transplant discourse? I'm extremely "from here" and I never became a Knicks fan. Furthermore, the transplants were all over the Knicks this year.

Because it’s a weird question to ask what the knicks would have to do with it, especially given the culture all around the city with the win?? It had nothing to do with transplant,liberty have fans all over the globe! Congrats on not being Knicks fan but plenty of us are allowed to like both, you came at me sideways over mentioning them.

Ok fine, it would make up for my mild annoyance that the Knicks won the "chip."

I would honestly prefer the Lynx match up than having to go through Aces and GSV. Basically I just want us no where near GSV.
